Not really, it is great that she won at 18 but she is very much a product of all that I despise about the Olympics gymnastics system. The only reason she wasn't on the Olympic team at 14 in 2004 is that it would have been against the rules.
I do give her story a bit of a pass since she literally grew up in the sport since both of her parents were Olympic gymnasts and so at least she got to have their significant involvement beyond driving her to boot camp at 5 in the morning.
